Briefly, A Cry from Egypt is a beautiful, historical fiction book
that takes place during the time that Moses was trying to free the
Israelites from Pharaoh (roughly Exodus 5-12). It tells the story of
Jarah, a 12 year old Israelite slave, and her family and friends as they
all intermittently suffer at the hands of the Egyptians and watch in
amazement as Yahweh rains down plagues on the Egyptians because their
stubborn and arrogant Pharaoh will not let God's people go free. Jarah's
mother is the only one in her family who does not believe in Yahweh and
it is very interesting to read about this "house divided", so to speak.
It brought this portion of Scripture to life and I'm so honored to have
been able to have my family read it.
